French filmmaker Olivier Dahan directs this sequel to international hit CRIMSON RIVERS; the script, based on a novel by Jean-Christophe Grange, was adapted by Luc Besson (THE FIFTH ELEMENT). The creepy, fast-paced narrative follows police detective Pierre Niemans (Jean Reno), who this time undertakes an investigation of a monastery in the Lorraine. His team uncovers a corpse hidden in the wall, and this raises suspicions of ritual murders. Meanwhile, police captain Reda (Beno?t Magimel) has picked up a mysterious and confused man who has the same DNA as Jesus Christ. Niemans and Reda team up, and soon their path leads them to the dark organization known as the "Angels of the Apokalypse," where the evidence is mounting that the end of the world is nigh.
